A Vibrant, School-Ready Environment

Our Artisans program provides a warm, engaging environment where children build essential readiness skills and express their creativity. Aligned with NYS standards, our program supports strong academic and developmental foundations.

Building Strong Early Reading Skills

Children build early literacy skills through daily shared reading and a language-rich curriculum. Phonological awareness is strengthened through rhymes, songs, finger plays, and sound games. Emergent phonics and word recognition are developed through meaningful letter–sound practice.

Early Mathematical Thinking

Children practice number recognition, counting, sorting, and sequencing throughout the day. Our year-long themes encourage students to make predictions and engage in hands-on experiments. In our STEM room, children explore, investigate, and create through open-ended activities.

Language-Rich Literacy Development

Aligned with NYS standards, our literacy program builds essential early reading skills through shared reading, phonological play, letter–sound practice, modeled fluency, and early writing experiences. Together, these elements create a strong foundation for kindergarten readiness.

Inquiry Through Science & Social Studies

Year-long themes encourage children to observe, predict, investigate, and make meaningful connections across subjects. They explore nature, conduct simple experiments, and learn about their community and the wider world. Our STEM room enhances this inquiry with hands-on building, testing, and open-ended engineering activities.

Social–Emotional Growth & Community Engagement

Pre-K children build empathy, emotional regulation, collaboration, and resilience through daily routines. They practice conflict resolution, cooperative play, turn-taking, and group responsibility—skills essential for successful classroom life.
